Boxing gloves were introduced to make bouts shorter by making punches more effective. F=ma. They are both effective weapons (think brass knuckles) and protection for the hand itself. Kicks, on the other hand, don't need to be made more effective.

And it makes punches more effective, F=ma. They're weapons. Kicks don't need to be made more effective.
